Jack Duckworth Death - Coronation Street

Jack Duckworth Fan Page http://tinyurl.com/JackDuckworth

Following his move to Connie's home in the suburbs Jack's appearances on the Street become intermittent. In November 2009, Jack and Connie join Tyrone in the Rovers for a drink. After Connie leaves, Jack tells Tyrone that he is worried that she wants more than companionship. Jack then hides out at Tyrone's until Connie catches up with him and reveals it is only a misunderstanding about her sleepwalking, much to Jack's relief. Jack and Connie join Tyrone, Bill Webster (Peter Armitage) and Pam on Christmas Day 2009. Jack is present once again in early 2010, when Molly and Tyrone are having marriage difficulties and is seen in the Rovers after the funeral of Blanche Hunt (Maggie Jones) in May 2010. Jack makes an appearance on September 9 2010 to visit Molly, who has just given birth, and is told her and Tyrone's son will be named Jack in honour of him.

When Jack moves back in with Tyrone and Molly, they suspect that he has fallen out with Connie. Jack initially tells Tyrone that he has simply missed living with them both. However, when Connie turns up at the house and cryptically demands why Jack hasn't told them the real reason for his stay, he is forced to reveal the tragic truth. On 8 October 2010, Jack tells a devastated Tyrone that he has an incurable form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and only has weeks to live. He returns to No. 9 to live out the remainder of his days, and makes Tyrone promise that they will make the most of his last few weeks.

During his final weeks, he strives to perform acts of kindness for those around him. He sends Sally Webster (Sally Dynevor) tickets for the opera after hearing her say that she always wanted to go. After seeing Emily Bishop (Eileen Derbyshire) collecting money in the Rovers to repair the roof of the local church, he anonymously donates over 2,000 pounds to the fund. When Ashley Peacock (Steven Arnold) confides in Jack about problems that he is having with his wife Claire (Julia Haworth), he attempts to reconcile the couple by encouraging them to talk to one another. After baby Jack's christening on 5 November 2010, Jack is devastated when he overhears a conversation between Molly and Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell), in which Kevin reveals that he is the father of baby Jack, and not Tyrone. On 8 November 2010, Jack dies in his chair and is joined by the ghost of Vera. As a ghost, Jack gets out of his chair and dances with Vera and they kiss. Later on Tyrone, Molly and Connie return to find Jack dead in his chair, and Tyrone says a few last words to him "Good Night Dad".

[DuckSmuggler1]

Why did he call him dad its not his dad

[Gaznugget]

How sad, Jack and Molly talking to one another, and now they are both dead. It's quite ironic really how Molly was upset that Jack was going to die soon, and not long after, she died too. Also, my great uncle, whom I call uncle Jack, not only had the same name as him, but died on November 8th, 2010 just like Jack Duckworth, and of cancer! Weird huh, it shocked me I can tell you that.
